Ghana’s Black Challenge will be determined to bounce back from their opening-day disappointment when they take on Colombia in their second Group D encounter at the 2026 WAFF Amputee Football World Cup on Sunday, November 15, 2026.

The Ghanaian side will be eager to put their campaign back on track following a 2-0 defeat to former world champions Angola in their opening fixture on Saturday.

Head coach Stephen Richard Obeng and his charges now face a crucial test against Colombia at Santa Lucia 1 in Mexico, knowing that a positive result is essential to keeping their hopes of advancing to the next stage alive.

Having suffered an early setback, the Black Challenge will be keen to rediscover their rhythm, sharpen their attacking threat and demonstrate greater resilience as they seek to get their campaign up and running.

The Black Challenge will understand the importance of securing maximum points against Colombia, with little room for further slip-ups in a fiercely competitive group.

The 2026 WAFF Amputee Football World Cup is being held from November 13 to 22 in San Juan de los Lagos, Mexico, with 24 national teams from Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas competing for the coveted global title.
